[[Std_SelBoundingBox|Std SelBoundingBox]] sets the [[3D_view|3D view]] in such a way that selecting individual objects doesn't select the entire shape of a selected object, but only highlights the bounding box.
The '''Std SelBoundingBox''' command toggles the bounding box highlighting mode. If this mode is switched on, selected objects are marked in a [[3D_view|3D view]] with a highlighted bounding box instead of a highlighted shape.

The bounding box highlight is less intrusive and lets you see the individual sub-elements (vertices, edges, and faces) better when the entire solid is selected.
